DETROIT, July 29.?At the setifllon ol the united Biaivp j^uuruu ill jiuiiuuifc and I-oan Associations to-duy, D. Eldridge, of Boston, gave a "few notes or the management of a cooperative bank." The authority to make loam dm the part of the secretary of a co-operative hank should bo exercised with extraordinary care and great wisdom Affairs In this line ought to be so conducted that if a question of a proposed loan reach the directors that would b< presumptive evidence that It had passed the ordeal of the secretary's scrutiny and lh" oomjnlttee'B examination. A secretary, If he is a good manager, will only bring before the directors foi their action matters of superior importance, settling all others himself, but ht should in no case go beyond the limit: permitted by his drectors. Tho speaker gavu Ills Ideas us to the routine management ?f an association by iu f;. notary, spoke of the banking of the funds, the aiscnarge or moriguKe, renewal of insurance, rentul of property, payment of money or withdrawals, und matured shares, and many other exigencies In connection with the ultalrs ol u co-operative bank." "The rights and duties of bulldins and loan association stockholders und their relations to creditors" was dlscussed In a paper by A. J. Duncan, ol Columbus, deputy Inspector of Ohlc building associations, and a brother-lalaw of President McKlnley. He said that the purposes of his address was to stimulate, among those Interested in the maintenance of the original principles upon which building and loan associations are based, Inquiries as to present rights and duties ol nu mbers and their relation to creditors Such Increased interest, he asserted with its accompanying broader under standing of rights, privileges and Uu? ties, would be the inspiration of more favorable legislation, and the best defense against Inimical laws. "At nc time," said the speaker, "has the publK demanded more stringent legislator and protection against visionary and dishonest schemes under the guise ol building and loan associations than at present." Mr. Duncan commended the simple contract provisions of the original Greenwich building nnd loan association, organized in 1809, an a true test and reasonable guide for building associations, and one which the courts ol England and America aro disposed t( recognize in interpreting subsequent legislation and decisions on these subjects. The right of a member to borrow or his stock or to recelvo an advance* loan upon his shares might be called the cornerstone of the system and any departure from this fundamental principle was destructive at the whole scheme. The decisions of our courts were uniform upon the point that the loan Is an advanced payment upon the nrnm.nt nt atnnlr U'liloh t hn ninmlmr would rcceive when the sharp is perfected, and to the payment of which Btoch the member is bound. The general rule of allowing director? to determine the amount to be paid tfl r withdrawing member had been n Humbling block to the associations, The Ohio law, said the speaker, required an annual distribution, to b placed to the credit of the members' accounts, thus placing, the associations upon the same basis In this respect a? other financial institutions. Owing to the peculiar nature of the building association business, receivers had to bo allowed great discretion in Bottling claims in cases of liquidation or insolvency and the line of action In such cases should be modified according fo circumstances and the statutes of the various states. In conclusion! Mr. Duncan urged strict compliance with the foundation principles of building associations and closer observance if state statutes relative thereto. "The service and Influence of out Mate leagues," was discussed by Hon, James M. Clarency, of Philadelphia, lit "poke particularly of the state league'! influence upon legislation affecting building associations, and gave it a? Ills opinion that every state should have ? specific building and loan law atid al' societies be operated under It. "Oui aim In Philadelphia," he said, "has bcor to keep the associations purely, even severely, local, that we might build uj ft system in which the local committee! would become Interested, and therebj lessen the possibility of failure, elthei through defalcations or unwise invest* tnents," He advocated the election <?i at least one first olasB building and loan man to every session of the different legislatures. Organization by building a ' latlons for legislative purposes hai also been suggested. "Once Judicious building and loan associations are placed upon the statute books," concluded Mr. Clarency, "the state leagues should to it that no speculative band be snowed to alter otf revise them for gain or any ultorior purpose." Albert Barnes, of Decatur, III., treasurer of the Illinois league, read a pa1"' pn "Apportionment <>f profits." H< 1 mned the practloe of apportioning time more profits than had actu* i n earned and showed that unless 1 ' 11 latlon had an afaplo contingent r' erve fund, tho iros In force Is met must inovltably beat the liurden, not only of their own pro' tho loss, but Al o the addl* burden ot that part of the ! 1 hould be chargod to maturing M| name)! cautioned secretaries not hasten the time for maturing of n ' of shares on account <?r the importunities of members or for any rea* " matter w hal the tomptatloit tc announce "quick maturity ol itiai Onp?
